Hi Marc,

this is not your fault, it is a JOSM bug in the preset validation. 
Apparently no one has ever used localized text in a list_entry. I've 
fixed it a moment ago in r5722.

For earlier versions of JOSM, it is save to ignore this message, as you did.

Regarding your preset in the wiki: An .xml and a .zip file has been 
attached, this is normally not required. Can we remove it?

Here is another tip when you want to test your wiki preset: JOSM caches 
the downloaded preset file for one week. In order to force an update, 
you can go to the JOSM settings directory [1] and delete the 
corresponding file in the cache directory. (You can remove the entire 
cache folder if you like.)
